Truncated Dialog Boxes

We received a Support Call where one of our users had an issue with a Truncated dialog (the Draw Ancillary Features dialog).  This dialog is not only truncated, but it cannot be resized.  Please see image below:

To resolve this issue, try the following steps first.  The following steps will preserve your Microstation User Preferences:

1.  While in Microstation, Navigate to Actions > Cleanup and QC Utiliities > RSC-UPF Cleanup Tool.

2.  From the RSC-UPF Clean dialog, select Cleanup RSC's and UPF.

3.  If the dialog does not correct in size, close Microstation/GEOPAK.

4.  Open Microstation/GEOPAK.

5.  Open the Tool with the Truncated dialog.

If the above steps do not fix the problem please complete the following steps:
